Product Details

Shoot and share DSLR-quality photos online, straight from the camera. With
built-in Wi-Fi®, the NEX-5R even lets you download camera apps for endless
creative possibilities. And the 16.1MP APS-C size sensor delivers breathtaking
stills with pro-grade defocused backgrounds. All this and more in a camera that’s
about half the size of a DSLR.

Features:

16.1 MP APS-C size HD image sensor
The same sensor format that Sony builds into the full-sized DSLRs. With 13
times the area of the typical point-and-shoot image sensor, APS-C sensor size
makes the difference between “snapshots” and “photographs,”
delivering an exceptional combination of high resolution, high sensitivity
and gorgeous, blurred backgrounds

Wi-Fi® Sharing
Wi-Fi® capability – a first for Alpha-series – lets users transfer
photos directly to smartphones and tablets with the PlayMemories Mobile™
app. Wi-Fi capability allows for sharing, viewing and saving photos for expanded
photo-shooting enjoyment. Photos can be easily transferred to smartphones
and tablets, viewed on large screen TVs or saved to PC’s

180-degree tilt-able 3.0” Touch LCD
The NEX-5R is equipped with a tilt-able LCD screen that flips up 180-degrees
without sacrificing the compactness for which the 5-series is renowned for.
This makes taking great self-portraits incredibly easy since users can precisely
compose shots, choosing to include people or objects in the frame for more
satisfying results

Picture Effect mode
There are 7 types (11 variations) of picture effects to choose from: Posterization
(Color), Posterization (B/W), Pop Color, Retro Photo, Partial Color(R), Partial
Color(G), Partial Color(B), Partial Color(Y), High-key, High Contrast Monochrome,
Toy Camera. Each is unique and each give you a new and exciting way to make
your images and videos pop

6-image layering
The camera leverages the large, APS-C image sensor and captures six images
in a fraction of a second. The camera then combines the data from the 6 different
images up to ISO 25600 to create a single image. This method is used to control
blur in Anti-Motion Blur mode or to get cleaner, sharper nighttime pictures
in Hand-held Twilight mode

Photo Creativity Touch interface
The Photo Creativity touch interface enables you to easily enjoy the creative
expression of SLR-quality digital imaging without the complicated settings.
Changes can be easily made using the control dial with results seen in real
time on the LCD. Settings include; Background Defocus, Brightness, Color,
Vividness and most Picture Effects

Auto HDR built into camera
High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography captures more scene contrast than a single
exposure can handle by combining the best highlight detail from one shot and
the best shadow detail from another for one incredible shot. Handles severe
backlighting and other high-contrast scenes. Captures in a split second. (Recommended
for still subjects.)

Fast Auto Focus
Some cameras in this class are slow to focus. That can make you miss the shot
on fast-moving subjects like sports and unpredictable subjects like pets and
babies. Sony’s fast Contrast Auto Focus system typically takes as little
as 0.3 seconds and also offers continuous Auto Focus when shooting movies

Peaking AF display
The Peaking AF display makes precise manual focusing much easier by highlighting
the edges that are in focus in your choice of three colors (white, red, or
yellow). This is especially helpful during macro or portrait photography where
your focal plane can make or break your shot

Manual Focus Assist
Greatly magnifies the viewfinder image when you touch the focus ring, making
it easy to get razor-sharp images. Works with E-mount lenses only

Enhanced Tracking Focus
Tracking Focus continuously tracks a user-designated subject and is now more
effective at tracking people. If the subject turns away from the camera, face-detection
tracking automatically switches to subject tracking and continues tracking

Face Detection Technology
The camera can automatically detect up to eight individual faces and adjust
focus, exposure, white balance and flash to help deliver crisp, properly lit
images of family and friends. Can prioritize children or adults

Smile Shutter™ technology
Captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply select the Smile Shutter™
mode and the camera takes the picture automatically. You can prioritize children
or adults and adjust the smile sensitivity

Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO)
Improves results with backlit subjects and recovers details hidden in shadows.
Settings include Auto, Level with a choice of five operating levels and Off

Six Creative Style settings
Control how the camera processes your images with six finishing styles: Standard,
Vivid, Portrait, Landscape, Sunset and B&W. You can even fine-tune contrast,
saturation, and sharpness to your personal taste

Anti-Dust Technology
Dust on the image sensor leads to blemishes in the picture. To protect the
sensor, Sony incorporates an advanced ultrasonic system, which effectively
shakes dust off the sensor surface
